Conservation Biology brings together fundamental principles, tools and techniques from applied and basic research, and hundreds of real-world examples and stories from a variety of disciplines to teach students how to become practicing conservation biologists who protect and manage Earth's biodiversity.

By bridging the life sciences, social sciences, humanities, and engineering disciplines, this text inspires the next generation of conservation leaders to tackle complex environmental challenges and become effective stewards of the world's biodiversity.

A major theme throughout the text is the active role that researchers, local communities, conservation organizations, governments, and the public can play in protecting biodiversity.

The second edition of Conservation Biology is updated with the latest research, new interactive exercises, and improved diversity and inclusion to prepare upper-level undergraduates and graduate students for successful careers in conservation.

The new enhanced e-book offers additional features to reinforce learning.

Tree Kangaroos: Science and Conservation
<p><i>Tree Kangaroos: Science and Conservation</i>, a volume in the <i>Biodiversity of the World: Conservation from Genes to Landscapes </i>series, provides an overview of tree kangaroo species and their relationship with humans. This exciting, interdisciplinary work on tree kangaroo science and conservation is divided into six major sections: (1) tree kangaroo evolution, genetics, taxonomy, ecology, behavior, and conservation status&#x3b; (2) current and emerging threats to the species&#x3b; (3) conservation programs in Australia and New Guinea with an emphasis on the human aspect of conservation&#x3b; (4) the role of zoos in conservation solutions&#x3b; (5) techniques and technologies to study this elusive marsupial&#x3b; and (6) what is needed to keep tree kangaroos and their landscapes healthy in the future. </p> <p>The series on <i>Biodiversity of the World: Conservation from Genes to Landscapes</i> includes titles focused on specific species or taxa across disciplinary boundaries and spatial scales--from genes to landscapes. Volumes are edited and written by prominent scholars and practitioners to illuminate and advance biodiversity science and conservation.</p>
